Data Processing Description

Dataset Processing Description

BCO-DMO Processing Notes
- Generated from original .html file "gt10_EventsTable.html" contributed by Bill Jenkins
- Lat/Lon converted from degs, decimal minutes to decimal degrees
- Lon values signed negative for West
- date reformatted to YYYYMMDD
- time reformatted to HHMM
- "nd" (no data) value inserted in blank cells
- Commas in text fields converted to semicolons
- Parameter names modified to conform to BCO-DMO conventions
- Original Event for Cast 6/1 of Event 2026 corrected to Event 2106 after checking event log
- Original Event for Cast 5/5 of Event 2082 corrected to Event 2092 after checking event log (22July2011/srg)
- Added Cast 995/0 Event 2003 after working with scanned cast log sheets (25July2011/srg)
- "GT_Ev#" Parameter in original table changed to "Event" for consistency with Event Log
- Type "SIOR" changed to "ODF" for consistency with other data
- "Event" Parameter in original table changed to "activity" to preserve unique parameter names
